Snap is a widget drawer, similar to the notifications drawer.
Just pull from one area of the status bar (left, middle or right) to access it. It's basically like the IOS widgets.

Yes, this has been requested a lot. It will be implemented soon.
Great app, only on my phone I have the DPI lowered so the pull down menu is pretty shrunken as well
It's a little quirky on my HTC One M8, but I'm running a custom ROM. I had to change the default from right to left (for the quick pulldown). Might want to set that as default as a metric frak ton of custom ROMs use the right side of the status bar for quick access to the toggles. Then again, those users would have set that and would know to change it. Also, 3 seems like a low limit for the free version, but for my use case it's perfect. If I decide to keep it I'll pay regardless of whether or not I want to add more. Besides, anyone with Zooper could make one widget that does all the things and just use that as one of the three. Me, I'm happy with Google Search, Poweramp, and SoundHound.
When I say quirky, I mean it didn't work right at first, I had to get out of the app and onto my home screen. And then when it opens, it seems to just unceremoniously slam down. It's a great idea, and deserves a smoother animation (I didn't disable them in Preferences) than it's getting.
Overall it's a great idea, and I might just move my big Zooper widget onto Snap so I can use more of my screen for the wallpaper...
edit: Hardly ever works on the HTC lock screen. HTC tied the screen-off wake gestures to the lock screen, else I'd replace it yesterday. Not something I expect you to be able to work past, HTC stuff is generally regarded as a pain in the neck anyway.
Wow! This app is great! Thanks
Brilliant app. Bye bye to my clustered home screen. Is there anyway to be able to scroll on a single widget with one finger?

1. Support to add smaller widgets side by side
2. Single widget scrolling
3. Widget resizing
With these this would be perfect!
Edit.
4. Option to pull drawer from bottom (left-right-center) instead of top of screen

First point will be added in a future update. This has been requested since day one.
Widget scrolling can be done with two fingers in the current version. This will also be updated soon for one finger scrolling.
Widgets dimensions can be changed in preferences. Just tap the widget on the list.

Those ideas were suggested before last update got my phone, instead 4. - that was added after last update.
I already have latest version running and that was kinda huge update. Very much thanks!
Perhaps the option to choose your own background and transparency options and drag in from any location you choose. (ex: from bottom or sides)
otherwise, i'm enjoying it.
Will the modified DPI problem be addressed as well?

Many thanks for this i always wanted 7 Screens.
edit: working. 7 Screens!
So what did you mean with "'Prettier' Animations & more 'Friendly' feeling"? I cant see a difference.
For me, its just like the Stock-Launcher but with 7 Screens and that is everything i want
Again, many thanks for this!
edit2: not sure, but i think i just saw the prettier animation. the little slide while changing the screens?
Its a nice addition!
I find the changing of screens by dragging a little harsh hence I modified it. If you used iPhone/iTouch you know what I mean by harsh.
Glad you like it!
hi,
thanks but how can I changed widgets, shortcut...?

Have you found a way to eliminate the 3d app drawer?. Its way to slow.

More like standard popup. The animation make it slow to use. open an app take much longer than with old style launcher
nice!
What font are you using ?
The perfect Launcher to me would have:
1. Auto-rotate - entering text into the search box would be much easier in landscape.
2. 7 screens - you got it!
3. Things that are disabled to become an option for the user, ie. long press to add to desktop. I only say this because I like to long press (as opposed to menu-add) so that I dictate where the item is added. Otherwise, you have to add it and then drag it to the desired location.
I believe you are on the right path here. I for one like the new app-tray vs. the old one (coming from a G1), so I say keep that.
I don't remember the name of the font. But, its from a theme called elegance. See Android theme forum.
I too like the new app launcher. Though it isn't flexible like the old launcher. Yes, I have landscape on my new build. Everything works except the app menu. Well, it does work, just glitchy. Can live with it though. I now have a 360 launcher!
I wanted to mod Launcher2 during my coming holidays, but since you're already at it, may I suggest the following:
1. Make the number of screens customizable. I still prefer 5 personally.
2. Make long-pressing on the Drawer/"Menu" (the thing you press to start the launcher) activate the overview of all the screens as well.
3. Remove the dots indicators at the size, and replace them with icons to launch apps. The best will be to make it user configurable. That is, I can choose Browser for left icon and say, Twidroid for right icon. (I know there is a mod that does this already but it's fixed to the 2 apps that can be launched)
4. Fix the FCs . It still FCs quite consistently if you have a lot of large widgets (4x3 or 4x4).
Also, I believe app menu is glitchy due to lack of drawables (or maybe the 9-patches are done properly?). Should be able to fix it easily .
I know it's a long list, but you're asking for comments ! Keep up the good work!
Can you delete the wallpaer the girls
Thanks
1. I'm still wondering how to dynamically change the screens. I'm not used to storing preferences in Android either.
2. Yeah, I was thinking of the same thing too!
3. Hmm.. I was thinking the same for this too.. but.. putting the app icon itself will not match the launcher theme somewhat.. I mean.. it'll look ugly.. ideas?
4. This.. I haven't experienced yet. Hmm.
5. The app drawer glitch isn't because of the drawable. It's utilizing a surface.. perhaps a GL surface. That's why it isn't flexible. Kinda sucks.
As for the wallpapers, I'll delete and leave only one so that the filesize is lower.
Great job!
I really wanted 7 home screens. I love to keep some blank to enjoy a live wallpaper.
But like all great things there must be a critic. Is there anyway to add 360 auto rotation? I love this feature.
Thank you very much
I'm waiting for your new version
Looking at Apps Grid for landscape now. I think I can make it work. ^_^

Hey guys
Me and my bud from Spain (the coder) made a sweet lockscreen replacement.
Just search for "Simply Lockscreen" in the market.
Feel free to post bugs n' such.
Here's a screenshot:
very nice lockscreen...i've researched a bit and would really like to learn how to make a lockscreen also
Its cool, but it shows "null none" under the time. Also the home button unlocks the phone.
Incredible with froyo.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
also getting null none under the clock

It seems like we are in the same boat.
By the way I can bypass the lockscreen by pushing the home button. Also the stock lock screen want to creep up and take over.

Your video looks like it was recording a mirror version. Needs to be flipped 180 degrees about vertical axis
Also, a closer view so we could read what the screen says would be more helpful
It doesn't work perfectly, like many of the market comments. Pressing Home bypasses lock, I get null none under time.
I would like to see an option to not show weather (don't want additional GPS/battery usage), and the option to not hide the notification bar
Seems like a nice alternative. I would like to see an option to enter your zip code or city for weather, as opposed to using location only, since my GPS is on about 0.01% of the time.
Also would love other fonts for the time, and not sure if it shows unread sms, email, gmail, missed call or not, but if it doesn't, would love to see it implemented.
I have tried it out and i liked it much but can you add a 24/7 clock?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Updated to 1.3 versión, added support for 1.6 Donut! and Dream/Magic/MyTouch3G screen sizes
Thanks for the suggestions, I am working on
New Update!
To block home button:
-Select a Launcher in Lockscreen Settings.
-Click Home button and select SimplyLock to default home.
-Thats it! Home button is bloqued on Lockscreen and is full functional outside
This is a really nice lock screen. Simple and clean. I've just got 2 suggestions:
1. Can there be a way to disable vibration?
2. Like c00ller, can there be a way to use the standard notification bar?
Also, I'm not sure if it can be fixed (since I've seen it on other lock screens), but when leaving the lock screen and going to the lock pattern, the home screen quickly flashes behind the pattern screen.

Tips:
To lock the Home button on the screen lock "Simply Lockscreen":
-In the SL settings: choose a launcher for launch by default.
-Press Home and select the default option with "Simply Lockscreen" icon.
In the event that shows the original block before Simply Lockscreen:
-Go to Android settings, go to security and disable the screen original.
V.1.3.2: New version (21/08/2010)
-Bug fixes for the new FC's.
-Added support for the original bar.
-Ability to show the percentage of the battery.
-Auto hidden-weather performance if they are not available (null / none)
Can't find it on the market. Any chance that you can provide me with the apk?
Update!
V.1.4:
-Button to disable the original lock screen (2.X only)
-Added support for alarm.
-Added date display.
-Slide to unlock at 90% of the bar.
Very nice lockscreen.
However, it would be nice toadd options to:
-have the battery percentage without the location (mine is too long and overlaps the percentage)
-have the clock without the temp/weather
PS: on htc legend (official 2.05 unrooted) the "Button to disable the original lock screen (2.X only)" always gives me a FC

Thank you. Found it.
Another question is will there be an option to set the number of home screens? I only even use 1-2, so it's unnecessary for all the blank screens.
Also, it's running pretty nicely so far. Keep up the good work.

You can change it.
press on the home button and will bring a preview of the screens.
A long press on the screen that you want to delete and drag it to the trash. (the same as deleting an item from the home screen).
You can also reorder the screens ,add/remove home screens and change the default home screen.

I am not familiar with this device performance.
Did you have the same issue with other launchers (i.e Trebuchet launcher) ?
When you have the lags? on which operations?
Would like to try it, but it GooglePlay says "not compatible with your device"
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7500 with CM10.1 running.
Why is it not compatible?
wow... i hope this works with neo L
Nice work/launcher,thanks for it.Its a bit like the nova...:victory:

i tested it and it seems good but as a competitor of now actually it has more options

WHAT IS IT?
With flippr, your favorite widgets are always a touch away. Access your widgets while using any application or game without returning to the home screen! Check weather when playing your favorite game. Check your stock portfolio when watching a video. Read your tweets when waiting for a level to load in a fullscreen game. Yes, it is all possible with flippr. No longer are your widgets restricted to your home screen. A new kind of multi tasking.
Flippr is a small bubble (PA Halo inspired) that you can interact with which stays on top of all apps - you can access all your widgets with this small bubble. Touch bubble and move finger horizontally to switch widgets in smooth transitions. Organize your widgets into groups (Social, Media, Notes). Touch and move finger vertically to switch groups.
Your current app/game continues to run and you can interact with them even when the widget is displayed! This enables a new kind of multitasking.
Check out the video to see flippr in action:
FEATURES
1. Organize widgets into groups for easy access or put all your widgets in one group - your choice.
2. Works over any app or even full screen games.

Shy Widgets
Some people have said that the widget is hiding as soon as they touch it. Yes, this is the behavior by default. But, you can change it in Preferences. Look for the setting 'Hide widget on interaction' and disable it.
I have changed the post mentioning this.
I like it
I like it so far - animations are smooth on my N5. Took a bit of time to get used to switching groups though.
Can you make the auto hide option setting for each widget? I may need some widgets to hide on touch, but some to stay.
Update available.
I pushed an update to the Play Store:
New in this release:
1. Added option to disable ongoing notification
2. Option 'Hide on interaction' is now configurable for each widget (PRO only)
3. New animation: grow/shrink
4. Usability improvements

Yes, check out the latest update. Per widget setting is a PRO only feature though. Also, I have disabled 'hide on interaction' by default to avoid confusion.
Sorry!!
Sorry, everyone. I messed up slightly with the update.
Some of you may be getting an 'Error adding widget' message when trying to add a widget. I have fixed the issue and have pushed an update to the Play Store and should be available in a couple of hours.
If it is still not fixed, then clearing app data will definitely fix the issue.
Again, I am very sorry about this
you know what would be cool? a pro version option to make the widget hide when tapping on the screen anywhere outside of the widget. sometimes I just can't get the widget to go away by tapping on the Flippr thingy, and I can't tap on the widget itself because that will be interpreted by the widget as me touching it.
this app is a really nice concept by the way.
Edit: and one other idea ill just throw out there... Action Launcher also has capability to put widgets in a sidebar but the concept is a little different - basically, it uses a slide out panel that houses the widgets. this is an exceptionally easy to use format for quickly accessing a set of widgets. it's basically an app sidebar but for widgets. the downside is that the panel blocks a lot of the screen (more than what any one widget does). but like I said, depending on the use case, it's a very easy format to use.
the free version suppose to have 2 groups and 3 widget each but it doesn't work. only the top group appear when scrolling flippr
Settings app FC when i try to add widget to the group.
Device: LG G2
Rom: CloudyG3

I am working on a swipe to hide option. Tap outside may not be possible as that tap will be for your current app and not for flippr. I'll give it a try though.

Does the second group have at least one widget? Also, try moving the finger up or down a little more. It may just be the case that you did not move enough.

Thanks. This is the second time this has been reported - in both cases from LG devices.. Once from G2 and once from G3. I'll look into it. The logcat is very helpful.

ok, so I just noticed a bit of peculiar behavior and thought I'd pass it along. I'm not complaining, just want to be helpful and see if anyone else can duplicate.
I am using the Pro version on a nexus 10 (stock software). when I set the marker side to "left", I can switch widget groups by touching Flippr and then scrolling up/down. when I set the marker side to "right", I cannot change widget groups by touching Flippr and scrolling up/down...instead, I have to touch Flippr, then slide horizontally to the left side, then scroll up/down. it's as though the vertical scrolling detection is always "looking" on the left side and doesn't adjust to look on the right side when I change the marker side setting in the options.

Torch button isn't working for me.
When I touched the 3 buttons next to the apps in the Start Menu, everything went crazy. Most of the items on the start page disappeared, and no apps, when selected, did anything. I had to delete the launcher in a hurry...

The torch button bug fixed in 0.5 (will be updated in a few hours) . The 3 buttons in smart menu are the settings of each view. Top one is for widget (if you have one an x button will popup in top right screen and if you have no widget, widget selector will open). The middle one will open a new screen of all your installed apps. Those which are grey are already in your Smart Menu clicking them again will remove the app. And the bottom settings button is for shortcuts and works just like the widget one. If your device's dpi is mdpi then try installing the v 0.5. Join our comunity if you want to get the latest updates. I hope I solved your bugs. Thank you for your support and feedback.
